  • Year 7 Open Mornings

    Published 14/09/26

    We are delighted to welcome you to bexley grammar!

    Our Open Mornings provide parents and carers of children who will be in Year 6 in September 2026, and who have been deemed selective, with the opportunity to visit Bexley Grammar School and attend a talk by the Headteacher and students. Guided by our student ambassadors, you'll tour the school and experience first hand the friendly atmosphere that visitors so often remark upon, an enduring characteristic that is an intrinsic part of our thriving, supportive community.

    We hope your visit is informative, enjoyable and gives you a sense of what makes us unique. In the meantime, please explore our website and view our video prospectus; this wonderful production was curated by a former student and captures the essence of BGS perfectly.

    Please be advised that booking is required and tickets will be released online via eventbrite once the Bexley Selection Test results have been notified in early October 2026. 

    Our Open Morning sessions are scheduled as follows:  

    Tuesday 13th October Wednesday 14th October and Thursday 15th October 2026

    Thank you for your interest in our school - we look forward to seeing you in October.

  • IB Success for BGS Students!

    Published 07/07/25

    Congratulations to our Year 13 IB students and their teachers for the IB results, which were released on Saturday 5th July 2025. We're very pleased to continue to maintain high standards at BGS, and an impressive average point score of 34 points.

    Of special note this year are the proportion of grades awarded at 7-6 (47%) and 7-5 (83%); these represent the best results achieved by students since the school became a fully IBDP sixth form, 8 years ago. If we consider grades awarded in Higher Level subjects alone, these proportions are even greater, 7-6 (53%) and 7-5 (85%). With 168 UCAS points equating to 3 A* grades at A level, you can see from the table below that our students have once again gained a qualification of great academic value.

    As well as the school wide results being extremely pleasing, we also had some excellent individual results. One student, River Wattret, gained full marks - 45 points - in his Diploma. This perfect score is typically gained by less than 0.5% of all IBDP students globally, which is a phenomenal achievement. A further 8 students gained a score of 42 points or more, which would typically place them in the top 5% of IBDP students to have taken the diploma in the world this year. Ursule Goraviciute, Alexander Innes and Andy Yu all scored 43 points, while Jasreen Ghag and Summer Hewitt attained 44 points. These levels of excellence are quite astounding and the students should feel extremely proud of achieving these feats.

    In destination news, the Sixth Form Team is working hard to help confirm places on many university courses and degree apprenticeships, while some students have already secured employment. So far we have 7 confirmed Oxbridge places and 9 students accepted on to Medicine, Dentistry or Veterinary Science courses. For those in need of any advice or support in taking their next steps please do contact the Sixth Form Team via the support form sent by the Sixth Form Team.

    Congratulations, Year 13!
